BITESIZE | How Food can Improve Your Moo...

Dr Rangan Chatterjee: GP & Author
About this episode

We know that poor diet can affect our physical health, but it can negatively affect our mental health too.


Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my new weekly podcast for your mind, body and heart. Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests.


This week’s guest is world-leading expert in the field of nutritional psychiatry, Professor Felice Jacka.


We discuss the fascinating findings of her ground-breaking research into the link between food and our mental health.


Felice explains the important role our gut microbiome plays in our health and wellbeing, and how a diet rich in diversity is key to good physical and mental health.
